Fire-rated drywall in Westmount, installed to code

Fire-rated drywall is not optional where the code calls for it — garage-to-house separations, basement suites and party walls in a Westmount home all need Type X board in a rated assembly to pass inspection and keep the home safe. In Westmount we install fire-rated drywall to code and finish it clean. Westmount is one of Okotoks’s older, established neighbourhoods, so the work in Westmount leans toward popcorn and stipple ceiling removal, settling-crack repair and refinishing tired original drywall in Westmount homes now well past their first few decades. We cover Westmount and all of Okotoks, 7 days a week.

What affects the cost of fire-rated drywall in Westmount?

Area and assembly in Westmount

The cost in Westmount depends on the area and the rated assembly required — a single-layer Westmount garage ceiling is different from a two-layer party wall. Type X board costs more than standard, and the rating dictates the build-up in a Westmount home. We price off the spec and a site look.

Passing inspection in Westmount

The common rated jobs in Westmount are garages and suites. The rating only holds if the assembly is built and sealed exactly to spec, so we install it to code and seal penetrations properly in Westmount so your project passes the first time.

Our Westmount fire-rated drywall process, step by step

Right board, right build-up in Westmount

In Westmount we confirm the required rating, then install the correct Type X board in the right layers — the assembly, not just the board, is what carries the rating in a Westmount home.

Seal and finish in Westmount

Penetrations and edges are where a rated assembly fails, so we firestop and seal them in Westmount, then tape and finish the board clean. You get an inspection-ready, code-compliant Westmount separation that also looks finished.
